Effective communication is the lifeblood of any organization. Small organizations have different needs from large bureaucracies but all need information technology. Yet there is a tendency to treat information technology as something that merely serves a purpose, a ready-made item bolted on to an organization. The authors of "Management of Information Systems Technology" believe that this attitude is inefficient and often dangerous. In any organization it is important to look at the precise information needs and then design a suitable system. The major emphasis of this book is the identification and development of the most effective type of information system for a particular organization. Starting with a discussion of the nature of information and the role of computers, the book then examines different classifications of organization according to size, product, structure, age and ownership.
